SUBSCRIBEA trip to Vigan, 6
Left, a few meters from the Vigan Cathedral, Simbaan a Bassit, another centuries old religious structure in the city. This is actually a cemetery chapel known for its uniqueness as it is the only such kind with an espadana, bells placed at the top of the pediment.
Right, one of four UNESCO World Heritage site (baroque churches in the Philippines), the Church of the Assumption in Sta. Maria is another imposing structure. One need to have an ultrawide angle lens just to capture the facade.
Just outside of Vigan is Bantay with its impressive church of St. Augustine. The massive belltower located a few meters from the church overlooking a hill serves also as a watchtower against enemies.
Another town near Vigan, San Vicente is also a proud host to another beautiful church. Right, its centuries old fence still exists.
